163. Three dead in Portland, Part 1
On a hot June night in 1997, a dispute between Portland, Maine, bar owner Sabato Raia and three acquaintances – Nick Patenaude, Dana Matthews and Kevin Pinette – ended with the three men lying dead in the street in front of Raia’s apartment house. They’d all been shot in the head. Self-defense? Or just a pissed off guy with a gun?
In Part 1, Rebecca takes us through what happened and what people in Portland were saying as the case went to trial. It may be Maine’s largest city, but it’s still a small town where everyone knows everyone else, and that plays a part.
